I think Jimbo’s other boot is dirty, you better start licking.

Having gays admit the fact isn’t going to do a damn thing to the military or FR.

“I think Jimbo’s other boot is dirty, you better start licking.”

Aren’t you a nasty bit of work.

“Having gays admit the fact isn’t going to do a damn thing to the military or FR.”

And you know this how?

If homosexuals (gays and lesbians) are allowed to serve in the military openly, I think it will be a friggin' disaster.

If I may ask... Were you ever in the military ?

I was in the Marine Corps about 30 years ago. I was in Radio Communications with an Amtrac (tracked vehicle) unit.

From what I remember of what it is like to be in the military in my young 20's, having gays openly serving definitely will not work in that environment. Remember - the military is a highly testosterone charged environment with tough guys in their early 20's all eager to prove themselves. And of course handling very destructive weapons and driving heavy equipment are all part of the job.

That environment is no place to be out and proud and flying a rainbow flag, so to speak. Lots of opportunities for things to happen to someone no one likes...

Many other posters further back in this message thread have talked with current military and the overwhelming majority will not put up with it. They will leave, or if forced to deal with it, they will deal with it... and it won't be pretty.

The best thing for anyone confused about their sexuality or gender identity in the military is to take just keep to yourself and focus on the job and becoming the best Marine (or soldier or sailor or airman or whatever) one can be.

Celebrating diversity and LGBT rights is for the civilian world, NOT the military.

do one troll and take your pro homosexual crap elsewhere like DU, oh and if you decide to re-register then it just shows you have no life what so ever.
